Definitions

  • the invention relates to an apparatus for producing a coherent, monochromatic radiation of light in the form of at least one strongly focused output beam in which the light beam is produced in a light amplifying unit in which a selective fluorescent medium, with which an optional arrangement of pulsing devices is associated, can be excited by means of an excitation light source for pulsed .beam consists of coherent, monochromatic, strongly focused light.
  • monochromatic radiation of light involve the use of only one light amplifying unit.
  • the single beam of light, being sent by said light amplifying unit is identical with the output beam of the apparatus.
  • the energy received by the selectively fluorescent medium is muchhigher than the energy which is discharged into the beam of light.
  • the diflerence is converted into heat, which warms the selectively fluorescent medium.
  • the apparatus requirement for this is very large. Nevertheless, the pulse frequency of the known apparatus must be appreciably lower as the power becomes higher in the output beam.
  • the selectively fluorescent medium must have sufiicient time for cooling off between the single pulses. Said low pulse frequency restricts the possibilities of use of the known apparatus considerably or excludes same in some cases completely.
  • the basic purpose of the invention is to provide an instrument of the type described foregoing, which pro vides a high power valve in the output beam at any desired high frequency even including a pulse frequency approaching continuity.
  • This is accomplished by providing 3,543,113 Patente Nov. 24, 193W ice two or more light amplifying units which are combined into oneinstrument and are controlled in a way that the pulses of the single beams of light are in an alternating pulse relationship to each other so that a beani control device is required which is synchronous with the pulse frequency of the' single beam of light and whichis movable with at least one component of movement trans ⁇ versely to the outputbeam and which is associated with the singleibeams in a way that all single beam pulses leave the apparatus in the direction of the output beam.
  • the basic thought of the invention is to combine "a number of. light amplifying units into one instrument and to project out of the instrument in a common path its alternating single beams of light so that in spite of a high' pulse frequency in the output beam, the selectively flu, orescent'media of the' signal light amplifying units are energized only very slowly for sending of pulses so that; they heat up only temporarily.
  • it is pos sible to essentially inciease the pulse frequency in cornparison to the pulse frequency in known apparatus, up tol a continuous sendingof'power in the output beam. Consequently, new scopes of use are accessible to instruments" other in the output beam in time-measured intervals.
  • the output beam will then have a pulse characteristic, the frequency of which can be determined as desired by selecting appropriately the number of light amplifying units utilized in a given apparatus.
  • the light amplifying units can also be controlled so that the pulses of the single beams of light follow each other directly in the output beam.
  • a quasi-continuous radiation results of this'and shows variations in intensity.
  • an optical reflection device which is movable synchronously with the frequency of the pulses of the light segments by means of which the overlapping parts of the pulses of'single beams of light are reflectable to a light amplifying unit that emits its light pulse at a later time for use as an additional excitation light for the respective light amplifying units.
  • the chopped off portions of the pulses of the single beams of light are used in this case as the source for the additional excitation radiation for a light amplifying unit.
  • control device of the beam be provided with at least one surface of reflection which is inclined towards the output beam and to the source'of the single beam of light and which is arranged to a transversely driving support for rotation extending across a limited part of said periphery in a way that said surface of reflection moves through the outputbeam device during rotation.
  • control device for the beams consists of rotatable parts only and, therefore,- same is especially easy to control.
  • Each surface of reflection can be fiat. This makes its production easy but permits only pulses in the output beam having chronical intervals in between the pulses,
  • the flat surface of reflection cannot move while it reflects the pulse of the single beam of light in direction to the output beam and a certain amount of time is required to move the surface of reflection to the path of the 'single beam of light and the output beam and to move same out of the Way again.
  • each reflective surface is preferably built as a partial surface of a body of rotation, such as a cone. Reflective surfaces of this kind can be moved during reflect ion without the beam moving from the desired direction. Therefore, if an output beam comprising a sequen ce of pulses without intervals therebetween is desired, or an overlapping of pulses in the output beam is desired, the reflective surfaces must conform to the surface of a body of rotation. Successive reflective surfaces in the form of surfaces of rotation can be easily introduced at the point of intersection of two single beams, the pulses in the one beam overlapping those in the other.
  • the trailing reflective surface in such case interrupts the first single beam 'clipping the trailing portion of its pulses, while reflecting the second single beam into the path of the output beam. The leading portion of the pulses in the second single beam are thus also clipped ,and the output beam is being constituted by a continuous succession of nonoverla'pping pulses.
  • the light amplifying units are arranged in a step-like fashion in planes which are transverse of the direction of the output beam.
  • the control apparatus for the light beams consists of a plurality of rotatably driveable devices, each positioned respectively in said planes, and each respectively' carrying a reflective surface and moving same through the output beam upon the rotation of said devices.
  • the light amplifying units are arranged in a way that the single beams of light merge together at one focal point and that the control apparatus comprises a disk for rotation which is provided at its periphery with reflective surfaces which are differentially inclined to the axis of rotation and which pass through the focal point during rotation of ⁇ the disk.
  • the inclinations of the reflective surfaces are arranged with the differential directions of incidence of the single beam of light to the focal point in such a way that allisingle beams of light leave the apparatus using one path.
  • the control apparatus is one single rotatable disk and therefore, a small and easy construction is achieved.
  • two light amplifying units in a way that they send out single beams of lightjtraveling oppositely to each other and that the control apparatus is a round disk having reflective surfaces arranged tooth-like around its periphery and being alternately inclined, which surfaces pass through the light beams during rotation of the disk.
  • the control apparatus is a round disk having reflective surfaces arranged tooth-like around its periphery and being alternately inclined, which surfaces pass through the light beams during rotation of the disk.
  • many reflective surfaces can be arranged around the periphery of the disk-for each one of the two single beams of light and thereby permit the frequency of rotations of the disk tojbe reduced.
  • two or more output beams can be produced in the same fashion. At least two light amplifying units are required for each output beam and the control apparatus belongs commonly to all groups of light amplifying units and the outp t be m
  • the above-described control apparatus can be used in this case very well, said device being provided with pairs of light amplifying units being vertically opposite each other on the periphery of the toothed disk. This causes the output beams to travel out of the apparatus into all (itrec' tions radially to the disk.
